Based on any of the above-described embodiment, in the embodiment of the present invention, to from being carried out from the user equipment selected in third set When reason:
At least one configured for what is selected from third set target equilibrium cell is the user equipment in institute The user equipment for stating the SCell on the opposite direction in load balancing direction determines the configured mesh of selected user equipment It marks the load that balanced cell has received on the opposite direction in the load balancing direction and is less than the target equilibrium cell in institute Stating allows received 4th load on the opposite direction in load balancing direction, carry out at alien frequencies switching to selected user equipment Reason, selected user equipment is switched on its SCell;
Either objective equilibrium cell is not configured as the use of the SCell of the user equipment for what is selected from third set Family equipment judges selected user according to the measurement report received for selected user device configuration different-frequency measure Equipment meets alien frequencies switching condition, and either objective equilibrium cell has received on the opposite direction in the load balancing direction Load is less than the either objective equilibrium cell allows received 4th load on the opposite direction in the load balancing direction Amount, is switched to the either objective equilibrium cell for selected user equipment.
Specifically, the uplink and downlink business of user can be transferred to equalization target cell when in view of alien frequencies switching, therefore, on The load balancing of down direction cannot be triggered when line direction load balancing, and cannot trigger uplink side when down direction load balancing To load balancing.
When load balancing direction is up direction, initialized target equilibrium cell CCiUnder (i=2 ..., L+1) is received Row load Δtransfered_dl,1_iIt is 0.
1) for configured target equilibrium cell CCi(i=2 ..., L+1) is the user equipment of its down direction SCell, If meeting Δtransfered_dl,1_i< Δdl,1_i, then it is configured target equilibrium cell CCi(i=2 ..., L+1) it is its downlink side Alien frequencies hand-off process is carried out to the user equipment of SCell.Assuming that the downlink load of the user equipment is PDL_user, more fresh target is equal Weigh cell CCi(i=2 ..., L+1) received downlink load amount Δtransfered_dl,1_itransfered_dl,1_i+PDL_user; Otherwise, to the user equipment without processing.

Based on the above embodiment, method provided in an embodiment of the present invention further include: determine each target equilibrium cell in institute Stating allows received 4th load on the opposite direction in load balancing direction.
The step can determine that equilibrium cell in source needs to turn to each target equilibrium cell on load balancing direction in S12 It is executed when the first load moved.
Since the embodiment of the present invention is when calculating the load for needing to shift, not only allow on triggering load balancing direction Load condition, it is also contemplated that the load of transfer cannot cause the load balancing for triggering the opposite direction in load balancing direction, keep away The load for having exempted from transfer is excessive, so that the transfer of a direction load leads to the case where triggering the load balancing of opposite direction.
In an implementation, as a kind of possible implementation, determine each target equilibrium cell in the load balancing side To opposite direction on allow received 4th load, comprising:
Negative side for each target equilibrium cell, according to the target equilibrium cell after equilibrium in the load balancing direction Upward load is less than or equal to the principle of the high load capacity thresholding of setting, determines that the target equilibrium cell allows the source The 5th load that balanced cell is shifted to the target equilibrium cell;According to target equilibrium cell in the load balancing direction Opposite direction on load be less than or equal to setting absolute thresholding principle, determine that the target equilibrium cell allows to connect The 6th load received;It is equal according to load of the target equilibrium cell on the opposite direction in the load balancing direction and the source The difference of load of the cell that weighs on the opposite direction in the load balancing direction is less than or equal to the original of the relative threshold of setting Then, determine that the target equilibrium cell allows received 7th load;
According to the 5th load, the 6th load and the 7th load, determine that the target is balanced Cell allows received 4th load on the opposite direction in the load balancing direction.
It does not limited in the embodiment of the present invention and determines the 5th load, determined the 6th load and determine the 7th load Sequencing.
For example, the 5th load determined is Δ when load balancing direction is up direction1,1_i,dl=(P_ thhigh-PDL_CCi), the 6th load determined is Δ2,1_i,dl=(P_thabsolute-PDL_CCi), the 7th load determined Amount is
When load balancing direction is down direction, the 5th load determined is Δ1,1_i,ul=(P_thhigh- PUL_CCi), the 6th load determined is Δ2,1_i,ul=(P_thabsolute-PUL_CCi), the 7th load determined is
In an implementation, as a kind of possible implementation, according to the 5th load, the 6th load and institute The 7th load is stated, according to following formula, determines the target equilibrium cell on the opposite direction in the load balancing direction Allow received 4th load:
Wherein, Δ1_iIndicate corresponding 4th load of i-th of target equilibrium cell, Δ1,1_iIndicate that i-th of target is balanced Corresponding 5th load of cell, Δ2,1_iIndicate corresponding 6th load of i-th of target equilibrium cell, Δ3,1_iIndicate i-th Corresponding 7th load of a target equilibrium cell, EffCC1Indicate the source equilibrium cell in the anti-of the load balancing direction The cell spectrum efficiency in direction, EffCCiIndicate i-th of target equilibrium cell in the cell of the opposite direction in the load balancing direction Spectrum efficiency, NPRB_CC1Indicate that the source equilibrium cell can use of PRB in the bandwidth of the opposite direction in the load balancing direction Number, NPRB_CCiIndicate that i-th of target equilibrium cell can use the number of PRB, i in the bandwidth of the opposite direction in the load balancing direction =2 ..., L+1, wherein the total number of L expression target equilibrium cell.
Specifically, the 4th load determined is when load balancing direction is up direction
When load balancing direction is down direction, the 4th load determined is
In the embodiment of the present invention, in some parts with covering scene such as concentric circles great circle to when cell equilibrium, great circle Coverage area is greater than ringlet coverage area, and the user equipment selected may be not at ringlet coverage area, this portion picked out Divide user equipment not to be able to satisfy SCell configuration condition or switching condition, will be unable to allocation activation SCell or execute switching, thus It can not achieve load and be transferred to ringlet from great circle.So in the case where part is with covering scene, it, can be right for the effect of load balancing The user equipment of selection carries out a certain amount of amplification, and the user equipment of some redundancies is selected to execute load balancing operation.It selected Journey is as follows:
Remember NSCellActive(i.e. M1)、NSCellConfig(i.e. M2)、NHO(i.e. M3) it is from first set, second set, third collection The number of the user equipment selected respectively in conjunction, NSCellconfiglist_final(i.e. M2_final)、NHOlist_final(i.e. M3_final) it is the The total number of two set, user equipment in third set.Assuming that the number of the user equipment of final choice is Ntotal_select (i.e. M), then:
If NSCellConfig=0 and NHO=0, then Ntotal_select=NSCellActive
If NSCellConfig> 0 and NHO=0, then Ntotal_select=NSCellActive+MIN(NSCellConfig×α, NSCellconfiglist_final);
If NSCellConfig> 0 and NHO> 0, then Ntotal_select=NSCellActive+NSCellConfig+MIN(NSCellConfig× (α-1)+NHO×α,NHOlist_final);
Wherein, α is the amplification factor of setting, α >=1.
It should be noted that final choice switches over the number of the user equipment of processing after the number amplification of user equipment Mesh should be less than or the number of the user equipment equal to initial selected switching.
By above-mentioned load balancing process, if equilibrium cell load in source is still very high, and without normal direction alien frequencies member Carrier cell carries out load balancing, then it is small to the non-member carrier wave of other co-sited or non-co-sited can to continue trigger source equilibrium cell The load balancing in area.Because source equilibrium cell and these non-member carrier cells only have overlapping coverage areas at edge.
Description based on the above-mentioned technical proposal in the embodiment of the present invention two, provides in another carrier aggregation system Load equalization method, as shown in Fig. 2, specific as follows:
When S21, load balancing period reach, load estimation is carried out to each cell of our station;
S22, determined according to information on load this load balancing period need to carry out load balancing cell and load it is equal Weighing apparatus direction.If there is the source equilibrium cell for needing to carry out load balancing, then S23 is executed;
S23, preferentially select member carrier cell as candidate equalization target cell, and according to source equilibrium cell load, time The information such as equalization target cell load, load balancing direction are selected to determine target equilibrium cell;
S24, according to source equilibrium cell load, candidate equalization target cell load, calculate this load balancing period needs Execute balanced load (i.e. the first load);
S25, the ability and the configured SCell state of user polymerizeing in conjunction with User support carrier wave, generate priority set;
The selection and processing of S26, balanced user, specifically:
It preferentially selects configured SCell but still unactivated user is as balanced user, carrier wave polymerization is supported in selection later But the user of SCell is not yet configured as balanced user, finally selects the user for not supporting carrier wave to polymerize as balanced user.
The user equipment of priority set is successively selected to execute load balancing processing according to the equilibrium quantity of calculating, specifically: By configured SCell but still unactivated user equipment executes SCell activation, will support carrier wave polymerization but not yet configures SCell User equipment execute the activation of SCell measuring configuration, the user equipment that carrier wave will not supported to polymerize executes different-frequency measure and alien frequencies Switching.
Below by two specific embodiments, method provided in an embodiment of the present invention is described in detail.
Embodiment three, the present embodiment are applied to complete same covering scene, as shown in figure 3, the two of two frequency ranges of F1, F2 composition The network of a carrier wave polymerization.F1, F2 bandwidth are identical.Assuming that Cell1 (F1) uplink load is 30%, downlink load 70%; Cell2 (F2) uplink load is 20%, downlink load 20%;Assuming that Cell1 (F1), Cell2 (F2) cell spectrum efficiency phase Deng.There was only 40% user in network is the terminal for supporting carrier wave polymerization, remaining is the user equipment for not supporting carrier wave to polymerize. Assuming that load balancing triggering needs the load absolute door met to be limited to 50%;Load balancing triggering needs the load met with respect to door It is limited to 20%;The high load capacity thresholding that load balancing triggering needs to meet is 80%;Illustrate under this scene by taking Cell1 (F1) as an example Load balancing process.Load balancing can be realized with step as follows:
1, when reaching in the load balancing period, equilibrium cell in source is determined according to cell load.
Specifically, the highest cell uplink load of load is 30% on up direction, absolute door is triggered lower than load balancing Limit, therefore, up direction do not need triggering load balancing;The highest cell downlink load of down direction load reaches 70%, greatly Absolute thresholding 50% is triggered in load balancing, therefore, downlink needs to trigger load balancing, and equilibrium cell in source is Cell1 (F1), bears Lotus equilibrium direction is downlink.
2, target equilibrium cell is determined.Preferentially select alien frequencies member carrier cell Cell2 (F2) as candidate balanced mesh Mark cell.
Specifically, obtaining the load of Cell2 (F2), and carry out the triggering judgement of load balancing.
Down direction: Cell1 (F1) downlink load 70%, Cell1 (F1) and Cell2 (F2) downlink load difference are 50%, meet the condition for being greater than load balancing triggering relative threshold 20%, and Cell2 (F2) downlink load 20%, satisfaction is less than Load balancing triggers the condition of high load capacity thresholding 80%, so down direction meets load balancing trigger condition.
3, the down direction balanced load amount of Cell1 (F1) to Cell2 (F2) is calculated.Permit specifically, calculating up direction Perhaps balanced load amount and down direction need balanced load amount.Wherein:
1) uplink allows balanced load amount to calculate as follows:
Consider the load bearing capacity of Cell2 (F2), Cell2 (F2) uplink load is touched no more than load balancing after equilibrium High load capacity thresholding is sent out, Cell2 (F2) uplink can be calculated accordingly allows balanced load amount Δ1,1_2,ulIt is 60%;
Consider that Cell2 (F2) uplink load will not then trigger up direction no more than load balancing triggering absolute door in limited time Cell2 (F2) arrives the load balancing of Cell1 (F1), and Cell1 (F1) uplink can be calculated accordingly allows balanced load amount Δ2,1_2,ulIt is 20%.
When considering Cell2 (F2) and Cell1 (F1) uplink load difference no more than load balancing triggering relative threshold then not Up direction CC can be triggered2To CC1Load balancing, CC can be calculated accordingly2Uplink allows balanced load amount Δ3,1_2,ul It is 15%;
In summary Cell2 (F2) allows Cell1 (F1) to its balanced load on the available up direction of result ΔUl, 1_2It is 20%.
2) downlink needs balanced load amount to calculate as follows:
Downlink equilibrium can be calculated based on the equal principle of Cell2 after equilibrium (F2) and Cell1 (F1) downlink load Load Δ1,1_2,dlIt is 25%;
